I had a bone density over 2 years ago and it showed that I had osteoporosis. I think my scores were -3.9 and -4.2. I took recast and I got a fever of over 101 the next day. I didn't call the doctor however because it said that this was one of the side effects. I know that I need to have another one. The doctor hasn't mentioned it to me. I also suffer with eczema very bad and have even had to take steroids so that I would stop itching. I am a 57 year old woman.

Thanks for your Reply!
